Tulsa, Oklahoma’s Rat Boyz recently passed through Wichita Falls and played a headline gig at the Iron Horse, with The Kept and Basics also on the bill. Although their look can seem a little disjointed — a mixture of Patrick Stumpf and tattooed cowboy seems to be the theme — make no mistake, Rat Boyz are a punk quartet of the first order and very good. Their fans come to party, too.
